WTF? x 2
Geeze, and everybody thought the Navy went to shit when Zoomy allowed beards and mustaches
Remember the blue and grey polyester blend work utilities with the ball cap? The officer style white slacks, button up shirt and cap with the pewter emblem for enlisted?
Sadly, yes. I kept the polys as a back up when the ship's laundry was down or lost everybody's shit. Tossed the ball cap over the side and bought a ship's ball cap. The base commander at 32nd St. outlawed them as non regulation beyond the piers and a bunch of us had to go buy new uniform ball caps.
I finally got in trouble because I would wear dungarees with the gray top and a Dixie Cup shaped into gull wings. I got away with it for a year but then again 90% of the time I was wearing whites.
